This is going to absolutely ruin the housing market--anybody with a decent mortgage rate absolutely can't afford to sell, and anybody not sitting on six figures of cash can't afford to buy.

Here’s the bigger ask I mentioned: I owe $6k in back rent. I’ve been selling my limited belongings to reduce the number but it is slow going and I can’t hope to cover it all, especially not in the short time I have. I have enough to cover October rent and little more. More details below.

The rumours that Remedy won't hold your hand are true. Not even by the pinkies. They'll caress it, pinch it, slap it, maybe lick it for kicks. But they ain't gonna grab and hold onto it for dear life.

Omni-Crete (temp name) is a multi-purpose construction material. While its forms are near limitless, the amount fired from the main cannon is enough to patch holes, repair damage, create structural supports and more. Though it may require additional reinforcement as it dries. #UE5 #gamedev #indiedev

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

Well, that’s not the opening paragraph I expected.

1. Introduction

In the 1988 sci -fi roleplaying game Cyberpunk , the European Currency Unit serves as the global currency (colloquially referred to as “euro dollar”, “ed" or “eddie”) . In the story, the dismantling of US
democracy, a sovereign debt crisis and geopolitical mistakes
trigger the collap se of the United States . The European Economic
Community steps in and uses its well -regulated banking system and
single currency to displace the dollar’s hegemonic role.

I was thinking about how fast the video games industry went from "dudes in a basement" to "bigger than cinema" to "a giant carcass being picked at by capital" and how the speed of this growth and decline is INSANE. It took ~50 years.

These ads go in the same category as brazen, easily disproven lies after ICE killings. It’s not about persuasion. It’s a display of power. They could have passed them off as PAC-funded. They added “paid for by the U.S. government” because they want us to know they can break the law with impunity.

Another terrible thing about this industry contracting is every time someone talented also reports getting laid off, you start hyperventilating because it means more competition from other really good writers in this space. We're all fighting over the tiniest crumbs and it fucking sucks.

Make detailed texture trim sheets using only Toolbag’s texturing tools, without touching a high poly. By building everything with vectors, profiles, and brushes in Toolbag, you get clean, editable forms that snap perfectly, flow along curves, and blend without seams.

Bully 2 set on a college campus while taking references from movies like Revenge of the Nerds and skewering manosphere garbage would go exceptionally hard, but I don't think Rockstar has the stones for that.

I'm incredibly lucky in that I have stability thanks to my success and independence, but that is not the norm. Jobs were already scarce for composers even before everything fell apart. Now it's apocalyptic.

The promise of an independent double fine making small, weird games, is the most exciting thing. Layoffs made to keep the company stable are heartbreaking, but watching companies make smaller bets is a better path for everyone.

Video Games are responsible for 50K globally. Not all AI-related. A big chunk are due to the worst “strategy” I’ve ever seen from an industry’s ruling class.

Just speaking for film & TV there isn't really a job loss due to AI. It's been mostly due to successive punches of pandemic, streaming collapse, union strikes, studio consolidation and interest rates. This trend was in place way before Midjourney was pumping out pictures with 14 fingers.
